Men who sit to pee

[GilaMinumBeer]

Perfect explanation, especially having soaked into the subfloor. Sometimes when Mr. DIY notices a leak coming out from under the toilet, instead of pulling the toilet and replacing the wax ring, he grabs a caulk gun and "seals" around the base of the toilet. This only exacerbates the problem, forcing all the stink water under the tile/vinyl and into the subfloor.

And, sometimes it's just lazy toddlers.

Thought I had a leak after noticing what looked like moisture weep in grout tile around a toilet base. Assumed the ring failed. Pulled the toilet. It looked fine. Cleaned the floor, replaced the ring, reset toilet.

Still noticed tile grout seepage discoloration.

Fast forward, 7 y/o son left door open one day and I just happened by and saw him "no handing". Pee all over the toilet.

Made him hand clean that room with a scrub brush and a bucket. Problem solved.

For those that sit down to pee and just to pee, when did you first realize that you were a woman and have you told your family yet?

How about those that are standers but identify as sitters?

Talk about some wild shyte.

Reminds me of my 6-yr old grandson. One time he wanted me to come with him to the bathroom. While he was jabbering on about something he and I were going to play when we got back downstairs, he took perfect aim and then stood there with hands on his hips, his head turned toward me, talking while he went. Never missed a drop!

Yea gotta agree with @HopHunter here. I stand and use urinals outside the home (but I'll still sit at the 'work bathroom' if I've no choice cause when you go to the same spot multiple times a day and the janitorial staff cleans about once a year... MUN is disgusting) but otherwise sit cause that splashback goes EVERYWHERE. Its hard to tell until you've got something nearby enough to see it but I've had shower curtains about 4-6" away from the toilet get a good coating when someone stands and that is just nasty.

Pretty weird... Since I have a toilet paper roll sitting next to the toilet and it's not sopping wet and dripping of piss. I think all you sitters out there need to stop sword fighting while you pee standing up.

So, your floors are covered in sweaty foot funk, and foot fungus. I'll keep my shoes on thanks.

I'm convinced this is a regional thing.

Up here in the Great White North, we take our shoes off when we enter someone's house. It's honestly never occurred to me NOT to take my shoes off. The only times I've ever been in someone's home with my shoes on was when helping them move, and we were taking frequent trips in/outdoors, and the floors were going to be cleaned after everything was moved out anyway.

That said, we have this thing up here called "winter." You don't want someone tromping across your white carpet wearing snow/salt-soaked snowmobile boots.

But even in places without snow, do you *always* leave your shoes on indoors? What if it's raining? Do you walk around someone's house with wet shoes on?

And as for the "sweaty foot funk," guess what? If you don't keep your feet mummified in leather for 18 hours a day, they don't actually get that sweaty/funky! Try it sometime.

Awesome parenting technique! Thanks and kudos!

We have doormats. We wipe our feet when we come in.

hmmmmm . . . what's up with not turning a light on?

At 3:30 in the morning, when nature's calling and I'm still half-asleep (and planning to get back to sleep in roughly 90 seconds), I don't want to blast my eyes with light and risk waking myself up any more than is absolutely necessary to complete the task at hand.

 

[kombat]

I'm actually more concerned with people knowing the amount of tp i'm using when in a public restroom... hate it when the roll is just *SqEEEEeeek*

Wait until the adjacent stall(s) is/are empty, unroll as much as you need, tearing them off in strips of appropriate length, and pile them on top of the dispenser. Then if someone happens to be neighboring when you're done, no squeaking. The paper is already ready to go.

Er... so a friend told me.

Wife said I either have to start sitting down or cleaning the bathroom myself. So I gladly sit down now...

Also take my shoes off inside because why not? Cleaner and more comfortable. Then again you people with kids might as well wear army boots indoors because your homes are Superfund sites already.

I'd love to see my wife pull this tihs with me...

"Oh, I see. We are now assigning chores based on primary use....okay. The list of your new chores are; Change your own oil, you can light the fireplace when you're cold, kill your own spiders, get your own tihs off the top shelf, and brew your own beer and cider just to name a few. Cleaning the bathroom doesn't seem so bad, now does it?"

 

[iijakii]

Well I'm a lazy **** so that wouldn't work for me, lol.

Hmmmm... That's all it takes to get you to clean the bathroom? You'd be cleaning them all the time in my house.

Never liked sitting. Get all sorts of splashback on the bottom of your thighs/ass.
But I don't like getting splashes all over my pant legs/wall from standing either.

Best solution: Bathroom sink. At least there, you can "rinse off" and towel dry. Keeps things clean.

Am I trolling? Do I actually do it?

You figure it out

 

[Melana]

Great idea Venari! Make sure you use the fancy hand towels too.

 

[firerat]

You pee in my sink, I'll poop in your trash can.

 

[Brian77095]

How it normally goes for me....

 

[SnakeRidge]

Now that was entertaining!

 

[GilaMinumBeer]

This. And we have house shoes.

 

[Kharnynb]

wearing outdoor shoes in the house is just plain gross...at least wear indoor slippers.

you've got no clue what you are walking through during the day...

 

[Venari]

I poop at least 5 times a day,...

How? I go once every two days. More often if I have milk, which gives me some nasty runs.

The only thing that will get me to sit down is too much high gravity homebrew.

You should clean it anyways. Want to know the secret to a happy marriage? Me too, but cleaning helps.

 

[SnakeRidge]

I like to pee on the compost pile. Circle of life, right?

 

[GilaMinumBeer]

I hurt my back now doing mundane and everyday task. I dropped the mail, bent over to get it, back pain for a week.

Out of curiosity, do you take any form of statin for cholesterol control?

I ask because I had several similar experiences that were the result of statin induced myalgia.

Stopped taking the statins and the mundane task no longer have major consequences.

Nope. I take a ton of vitamins and otc pain killers. I also smoke heavily. Oh and I'm over weight. And I sit at a desk all day.

Have you tried not being old?

I have a dimmer switch on the bathroom light for *exactly* this reason. Just enough light to see what I'm doing, not enough to wake up any more than necessary.
